WebDocumentViewerConfigurationBuilder.RegisterJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory<T>() Method

Registers a factory that returns a service that provides a JSON connection string by name.

Namespace: DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting

Assembly: DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting.v25.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.AspNetCore.Reporting

Declaration

C#

public WebDocumentViewerConfigurationBuilder RegisterJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory<T>()
    where T : class, IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory

VB.NET

Public Function RegisterJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory(Of T As {Class, IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory}) As WebDocumentViewerConfigurationBuilder

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	A type that implements the DevExpress.DataAccess.Web.IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory interface.

Returns

Type	Description
WebDocumentViewerConfigurationBuilder	A WebDocumentViewerConfigurationBuilder that can be used to further configure the Web Document Viewer services.

Remarks

Call this method on application startup if you use the ReportDesignerConfigurationBuilder.RegisterDataSourceWizardJsonConnectionStorage method to register a custom JSON connection storage and specify the method’s parameter to true.

In this situation, the Document Viewer calls the IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory.Create method to obtain an object with the IJsonDataConnectionProviderService interface that provides the JSON connection string.

The following code snippet illustrates how to use the RegisterJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory method:

    public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication
    {
        protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ReportDesignerBootstrapper.SessionState = SessionStateBehavior.Required;
            WebDocumentViewerBootstrapper.SessionState = SessionStateBehavior.Required;
            QueryBuilderBootstrapper.SessionState = SessionStateBehavior.Required;
            // ...
            DefaultReportDesignerContainer.RegisterDataSourceWizardConfigFileJsonConnectionStringsProvider();
            DefaultReportDesignerContainer.RegisterDataSourceWizardJsonConnectionStorage<CustomDataSourceWizardJsonDataConnectionStorage>(true);
            DefaultWebDocumentViewerContainer.Register<IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory, CustomJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory>();
            DefaultQueryBuilderContainer.Register<IJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory, CustomJsonDataConnectionProviderFactory>();
            // ...
